Thanks for the comments.


Thank you for the reply makes total sense. I’m embarrassed I asked such a dumb question. lol.
Not a dumb question if you have limited experience with this kind of thing (or forgot). The answer by @heems was a good one. Each car has its own efficiency and thus best Level 2 charge rate.

crap, then is there a wall charger I could get that allows for more amperage? Like my old one? Or the new version Wall Charger (non universal) one allow for more amperage?
We have been told that the only WC that works with the CT is the UWC.

The Cybertruck onboard PCS is limited to 48A anyway (as are all Teslas for many years now).
Oh, well that makes sense. Now we just need to make it so it charges like it does at Superchargers and allows our wall chargers to put out higher amps. thanks for the information

Correction, I was able to charge at 80amps with Gen 1 wall charger. Truck did fine. Now just need to sell off UWC and find another Gen 1. Sweet!! You said it wouldn't work. Lol

Any EVSE that supports Tesla's connector will work for a Cybertruck. Only Tesla's newer Wall Chargers that support Powerwall integration (which I don't know how far back) will support two-way if you have the other hardware.

Lol - volts and amps, no quotes needed, basic math

Mind boggling that ppl think of charging in mi/hr. I wonder if they know how many min/hr their ? is charging
Mind boggling that you would be so crappy towards someone about the way they might think about something. What’s the payoff for you? Feel better?

I was just going by all the people that posted problems with Level 2 charging w/o the UWC, but I have no CT so it was only my recalling other issues. If you have direct experience I defer to that.

I just set up my Power Sharing installation today. I am super excited about it because I thought that having a generator I would be rejected - but no.

Do you?

That's what you do to correct someone instead of virtue signaling with no substance. Do you measure your phone battery in minutes or hours per day? How about phone calls per day - I still have 34 calls per day charge remaining! My phone is charring 377 calls/day per minute! Similarly, measuring EV battery or charge state or rate in miles or mile per hour is in the same ballpark.
"they way they might think about something" - pure woke BS!

I might have been curt about it with better ways to address it, but blindly supporting someone without correcting them is infinitely worse.
Ya, I think you've said all I need to hear. Nice talking to you.
